By the way Jersey must not be so great .... if we have like what seems hundreds of thousands of Jerseyers in Broward County !!

Good Luck to you and God bless .... hope New Jersey does it for ya
Agreed, no big loss to Miami I'm pretty sure.

didn't the OP move to jersey? i hope he doesn't expect the car horns to be any less frequent. maybe even worse.

The average Miamian doesn't go to the beach that often... maybe 4 times a year. I used to live there in the beach for six months, and noticed the locals there didn't put much attention to the sea.

The beautiful scenery is only located in the eastern side; most people live far west and have no time or need of going out of their ways to contemplate Byscayne bay. If they get to have some free time, they'd only enjoy the view for 5 mins or so - the bridges are like expressways, and it's not like people really care for the view either.

Warm weather is ok, but sun rays and the lack of shade trees make life outside your house, or car, very irritating - this is coming from someone who actually walks.

Rep, either you or I need a book on zoology. I could be wrong, but those don't look like any llamas we have around here. Maybe it's the feathers that are throwing me ...

Kid Rock sums it up pretty nicely ... and even provides a sensible solution!

Bawitdba da bang da dang diggy diggy diggy said the boogie said up jump the boogie

and this is for the questions that don't have any answers, the midnight
glancers and the topless dancers, the candid freaks, cars packed with
speakers, the g's with the 40's and the chicks with beepers. the northern
lights, and the southern comfort and it don't even matter if your veins are
punctured. all the crack–heads, the critics, the cynics, and all my heroes at
the methadone clinics. all you bastards at the irs for the crooked cops, and
the cluttered desks. for the shots of jack, and the caps of meth, half
pints of love, and fifths of stress. for the hookers all trickin out in
hollywood and for my hoods of the world misunderstood i said "its all in good
and its all in fun. now get in the pit and try to love someone!!"
for the time–bombs ticking and the heads that hang. all the gangs getting
money, and the heads to bang-bang. wild mustangs, the porno flicks, and all
my homies in the county in cell block 6. the grits when there aint no
eggs to cook, every db cooper and the money he took. you can look for answers but that aint fun.
now get in the pit and try to love someone!!

It's a reference to the movie "Dude! Where's my car?"

The dummies in the movie mistook Ostriches for Llamas. LOL! Oh, and the sound the "Llamas" make are actually sampled from peacocks!
